Life seems to be treating me pretty well lately. I don’t have one single complaint. I had my first REAL baby dream the other night… (the first few where I was giving birth to my little dog don’t count.) This dream was so vivid. He was MY baby. I remember just loving him sooo much and when I woke up, I was so sad that he wasn’t here yet! I am just now starting to get really excited for this whole adventure. I mean… I have been “excited”… but it was a different kind of excitement. It was more nervous excitement. This is like a Christmas morning excitement where you feel jittery and just can’t wait one more single moment! I’m gonna love this little guy… I just know it. 🙂
1 // His first Bear
2// I probably have the cutest nephew of all time. Seriously.
3 // An impromptu maternity photo shoot while at the beach.
4 // The nursery is coming right along…
I know there are a few new and expecting mommies out there… when did you start feeling your first REAL excitement?
Have a happy weekend!

There is nothing like the first baby. Being pregnant with the first baby, giving birth to that first baby, taking care of that first tiny newborn. It’s amazing. Cherish it because one of these times, it will be your last and you won’t have a pregnancy to look forward and you will no longer have a newborn hold and it will make you sad. (maybe). It makes me sad. My baby is now a tiny little girl who is more work than a newborn and has asked me to dress her in the same Snow White dress-up dress 7 times since I started writing this short paragraph. But I love her, even though I can’t get a thing done. I have to step back and remember to read to her every time she asks and hold her until she is ready to get down and play with her until SHE is ready to stop because now I am finally understanding what they have been saying for years “they grow up way too fast”. I thought it was just a cliche and I blew it off. I fear that my biggest regret later in life will be that I didn’t cherish it enough. So cherish it, breathe it and love it…..every bit of it. These are my words. Words from a very experienced, but very UN-knowledgable mommy and sister. Love you! This is going to be the most beautiful baby boy on the face of the planet.
I’m not a mommy (yet!) but just wanted to tell how how excited I am for you! That bear and baby bump are too cute!
Reading this gives me the best feeling. I’m so excited about meeting this new little guy, and so happy for you—my baby girl–to experience a love like no other.
My baby boy!!! He IS pretty cute. Yours will will be so adorable, and I can’t wait for them to be best little buddies! There are ridiculous levels of cuteness in our very near future. I felt exactly how you felt in the beginning . . just apprehensive. But I think once you start feeling him kick in there, start getting the room together, starting to build a life for him, you really start getting excited. I’m so happy you’re there! Its going to be the best thing that’s ever happened to you and you’re going to be so happy that you have this little person to make you smile every day for the rest of your life! EEEEE!!
